LC,
Also surprised at the response time! And from a post soooooo obvious!:D
ETPS do still fly thier Jags (x2).
seems a bit pointless now doesn't it
Nope. The point of ETPS isn't to get blokes up to speed on current hardware, but to enable to go on and do TP flying.

...and this isn't an ETPS aircraft anyway. Not all raspberry ripple aircraft are, contrary to popular belief hereabouts.
Anyway, back to the pics. Very nice. Last GR1, isn't it? I heard recently it'll be retired very soon.

The GR in the pic is ZA326, the last remaining Tornado GR1. It flew it's last sortie today at Boscombe Down. :(
The great titanium melting pot in the sky presumably beckons...

Although given the themes of 'Cold War' and 'Research & experimentation' at the museum at Cosford, a retirement home there might not be inappropriate?

Fox-1,
Impressive post - only 20 mins after 326 landed from its final sortie! Shame about the cloud layer.
